Holder and Obama do not live under the same laws as everyone else is suppose to live under.

Yeah this will work (rolls eyes)

When we will learn that Obama and his minions are un-touchable, and don't conform to our rules of play?

A major step ... yeah .. right.

There's only hold in contempt or not.

Whatr's a major step anyway?

I'm warning you ... I'll tell your father when he gets home if you don't do as I say.

In a Jan. 31 letter, Issa had threatened Holder with such a move [contempt of Congress] if he failed to provide all the subpoenaed documents relating to the Fast and Furious gunwalking scandal by Feb. 9.

Its February 14th. The documents have not been produced. Why bother with another empty threat, you didn't follow through with the previous one. Holder can agree to a date, revise the date, stall, procrastinate, obstruct, and continue to make the Congressional investigation a laughing-stock. Order an arrest warrant or shut up and quit wasting everyone's time.

Yawn...so what?

The last 50 years of Black history amounts to setting aside the Constitution and the individual rights of Americans for the new Royal racial collective. The rule of law means nothing to them unless it’s specifically to their advantage.

I wish this wasn’t so but it is and we have to live in the world as it exists.

Earlier last year the USAG went to court to specifically to get the ruling that Whites are not protected under any civil rights laws in the Philly black panther voter case.

How obvious do things have to get? America is headed down the same road as sub-Sahara Africa did when colonialism ended. Endless wars,violent crime and economic collapse.

^and that tame observation/opinion will get censored from 90% of the newspapers as insensitive...as if that’s what America was founded for.

Don’t know ... but this is Issa we’re talking about — and he’s got a bigger pair than Boehner. At least I haven’t seen him crying.
